Publish the Obsidian vault's Knowledge folder as /knowledge (881 notes, 67 folders), with a Knowledge item in the nav and footer. - scripts/import_knowledge.py regenerates data/knowledge from the vault: slugged paths, folder notes as index pages, wikilinks resolved to site links (or plain text), callouts, highlights, and Dataview tables rendered statically. Personal notes are withheld via an exclusion list plus a privacy guard. - tuftecms/core/knowledge.py builds a concept index from note titles and aliases. First mentions on ordinary pages link to their Knowledge note (capped, never in headings, code, links, or sidenotes); Knowledge pages list related notes and where they're mentioned across the site; other pages get a Related Knowledge block. - Knowledge URLs join sitemap.xml (so the sweep test covers them), never displace existing legacy slugs, list alphabetically, and mermaid diagrams render client-side only on pages that have them.

## The Spirit
|
||
|
||
Uvall — variously spelled Vual, Voval, or Wall in the manuscripts — is the forty-seventh spirit of the Ars Goetia, a Great Duke who first appears in the form of a mighty dromedary. When the operator commands it, the beast takes on human shape and speaks in the Egyptian tongue, though not perfectly. His archaic voice and camel-form mark him as one of the older, more distant-seeming spirits in the catalogue, an entity whose knowledge is bound up with the past.
|
||
|
||
Like several Goetic dukes, Uvall is chiefly concerned with the affairs of the heart and with the reconciliation of enemies, placing him among the spirits invoked for matters of love and social repair rather than destruction.
|
||
|
||
## Office
|
||
|
||
The Goetia states that Uvall procures the love of women and stirs affection between people. He gives to the operator knowledge of things past, present, and to come, and he wins the friendship of former enemies, turning enmity into amity. His command of the Egyptian language and of ancient matters marks him as a spirit of memory as much as of desire, joining the erotic and the historical in a single set of gifts.
